Beschrijving voorzijde The obverse field bears a bold Arabic legend struck in two lines across the coin's irregular flan, reading 'Abu'l Muzaffar Muhammad Shah' — a royal epithet and regnal name of the sultan. The script is rendered in a robust, somewhat crude Naskh style typical of early Bahmani copper coinage, with letters exhibiting variable depth due to the hand-hammered technique. The surface shows characteristic green patination over a brown copper ground, with the legend occupying nearly the full field without a formal border.

Aanvullende informatie

Muhammad Shah I founded the Bahmani Sultanate's independent coinage tradition after Alauddin Bahman Shah broke from the Delhi Sultanate in 1347. By Muhammad Shah's reign, the Deccan court was actively distancing itself from northern monetary conventions, and the copper falus bore that administrative ambition directly — small, local, and issued for everyday market transactions in a sultanate still consolidating its territorial grip over the northern Deccan plateau. The eleven-year reign saw near-constant conflict with the Vijayanagara Empire to the south.
